It's there daily in our lives: glass. Have you wondered how it is created? You may discover more at the Hamelin Glassworks...

Find out how sand turns to glass, how hot the oven must be and how much talent is needed to form the material to objects of use or art. Learning by doing? Yes, you may also use the Glassblower's pipe.

In addition to the daily presentations (30 Minutens, in German English or Japanese) visitors may take the special tour of the Glassworks. There are offers for children, as well.
